Tiffany Grant is an American voice actress and ADR Script who is known for her English dubbing work with ADV Films on such anime films and television series as Neon Genesis Evangelion, in which she voiced the character Asuka Langley Soryu. Grant is also known for portraying Altena in Noir and Ryoko Subaru in Martian Successor Nadesico. Although appearing in ADV titles, she is an independent contractor, not an ADV employee.

Grant, along with a handful of other ADV contractors, also works with Fort Worth-based anime distributor FUNimation Entertainment on series such as Fullmetal Alchemist. Grant enjoyed her role as Neon Genesis Evangelion's Asuka so much that she briefly reprised the character in the radio plays and fan-produced anime derived from the fanfiction series Neon Genesis Evangelion R. She has also reprised her role yet again in the Rebuild of Evangelion films. She has also cosplayed as Asuka (in Asuka's familiar red EVA-02 plugsuit and her school uniform) at anime conventions. Also, her bedroom is completely covered in Asuka merchandise. In recent years she has become friends with Yuko Miyamura, the Japanese voice of Asuka.

It has been thought the main reason Grant got the role as Juli Mizrahi in Xenosaga: The Animation was because many fans mistook her voice for that of Juli in the Original Game.

Contralto of Danger: Her fluency in German have many of her roles to have a deeper voice. Although there exceptions where she uses a higher-pitched voice than normal. Case in point, Kudryavka Noumi in the Little Busters! dub has her speak in a much higher-pitched voice AND she's given a Russian accent. note Given the fact that Russian accents are generally relatively deep in Real Life, it's a surprise that Tiffany Grant manages to pull that off

Large Ham: She pulls off over-the-top histrionics quite well, which is perfect for her more emotional roles such as Asuka.
